I’m sure this is old news by now, but some idiot working for the dinosaur-like NAACP gave a man crack cocaine to fill out 100 voter registration forms in Ohio.
While the dinosaurs are trying to scare people with moronic tales of the return of Jim Crow at the voting booths, they’re scraping the bottom of the barrel for John Kerry voters, real or imagined. Real classy.
According to the Toledo Blade (anything like the Washington Blade?):
Chad Staton, 22, of Stratton Ave., faces a fifth-degree felony charge of false registration after sheriff’s deputies said he filled out the registration forms by himself — using either fictitious names or addresses — and gave them to Georgianne Pitts, 41.Toledo police searched Ms. Pitts’ home and discovered drug paraphernalia along with more voter registration forms. Police said that Ms. Pitts admitted to paying Mr. Staton in crack cocaine, in lieu of cash.
Ms. Pitts, working on behalf of the NAACP National Voter Fund, submitted the forms to the voter fund, which in turn submitted them to the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections….
Ms. Pitts told police she had been recruited to obtain voter registration forms by Thaddeus J. Jackson II, of Cleveland, who is coordinating the Toledo area’s voter registration drive for the NAACP voter drive.
When contacted by The Blade this afternoon, Mr. Jackson said that Ms. Pitts was a “volunteer,” but said he had no knowledge of any fraudulent voter registration forms. He declined to comment further.
I also heard about the 1960s-style fireman-hosing-a-black-man flyer put out by the liberals, but I tried to ignore it. Michelle Malkin posted something on it. By the way, did you know it was DEMOCRATS who turned the hoses and dogs on blacks? I wonder if that information is on the flyer. The Democrats and their whole legion are imbeciles.
Links: I thought my “Crack the Vote” title was clever, but everybody’s using it. Blogs for Bush and Generation Why? are two. Backcountry Conservative and Captain’s Quarters comment of the cocaine caper. Speaking of crack, it seems I’m not the only one in this town embarrassed by the return of Marion Barry (Michael King).
Update: Rightwingsparkle has done the kind of “voter disenfranchisement” analysis that I planned to do but couldn’t find the time. Now I don’t have to write one! Check it out.
Update II: I am so paranoid about typos. Someone thought this was a typo (thanks for calling it out): “Blogs for Bush and Generation Why? are two.” Two is not misspelled. They are two (2) of the bloggers using the crack post title.
